Do no but I think that's pretty cool

lots of respect, I think, that one of the hardest obsticles to overcome in life is to get over adictions and most impo is to stay sober, not to slip.
for many this is impossible, obviouslu u have will power.
great job

Well I just thought I'd update my story cause it's been a while. I've had my job for five months now, gee time flies. I feel I have settled in and I am enjoying my working life once again. I'm still off the drink, though I did have a little mis-hap with the booze around christmas time so I'll prepare myself better for next christmas and my birthday so it doesn't happen again. Maybe do a few AA meetings around that time. I'm still very lonely, specially on the weekend when I'm not at work, so my next step is to work on the social side of my life, I have a few ideas that I will follow up on. I still enjoy being on this site also, I still get alot of motivation and ideas from here just from reading the posts. So I'll just keep on plugging away till my next update.

Great to hear the progress you're having, Blue Sky!
I'm happy for you. Hope it all goes well for you as well

I remember that happening at christmas. I remember thinking to my self that I had no clue in how I could help.

I think in any addiction that you have there are bound to be slip ups, times of weakness like christmas and it well not make it any easier for you being alone. The only addiction I have ever known is smoking. I have been stopped for just over two years. The 4th of february is that date. It was not easy to do. And I tried many times be for I eventually kicked that dirty habit. I did stop be for for a year and a half then started again. But this time is for good. Remember don't give up in giving up. What would your advise be for someone that has any kind of addiction?

My latest update is: Had my job for 8 months now. I'm still off the booze. Bought a second hand Mazda MX5 sports car. I'm also on a dating site but I tend to find more epal types on there rather than going out on dates, but that's ok. Still have my epal in Germany that I've had for three years, forgot to mention that before. I look back a few years and I have now got alot more going on than I used to, and I'll just keep on going, the best I can do.

Is it a convertible? Am currently trying to buy this garage near me cos at the minute I have to park my car in a car park near where I live. If I get this garage I may get a convertible. hah sorry for going off-topic. I well delete this post if you like Still I think you have done well mate. Not sure what an "epal" is tho. I have googled it but still I do not know.
